Within the frame of our school project for the scholastic year 2014-2015 “Technology, Science, and Creativity,” we have organized an exploratory visit to Planet Discovery in Beirut Souks. Planet Discovery is the only permanent children’s science museum in Lebanon, offering hands-on learning experiences for children of all ages. It is home to a variety of exhibitions on science and technology, and it offers interactive expositions and programs that contribute to a better understanding of the world of science (laws of physics, solar system, means of communication, etc.) and encourage self-guided exploration, providing opportunities for children to learn by doing.

The visit will take place on Thursday, March 26, 2015, (for Gr2 and Gr3) and on Friday, March 27, 2015, (for Gr4, Gr5 and Gr6) and it will cover:

·A visit to the science museum (lively and interactive demonstrations)

·A visit to the chocolate workshop (students learn how to make chocolate)

·A visit to the volcano center (educational workshop)

·A magic show
